Austria. The Official Qesterreiohische C...
AUSTRIA . The official Qesterreiohische Correspohdenz of this day ( Friday ) publishes an article detailing the departure of the Grand Duke of Tuscany for Bologna , his army having fraternised with the revolutionists . The article also states that the population of Massa and Carrara has revolted . In conclusion , the article says , that Austria must , therefore , draw the sword in order to maintain European order . An announcement , at Trieste , of the managers of the Southern Railway , states , that the stoppage of goods traffic still continues , and especially that the carriage of goods from the north southwards will not for a considerable time be undertaken . A prohibition against the exportation of corn is imminent .
America. The Hammonia Arrived At Southam...
AMERICA . The Hammonia arrived at Southampton this day ( Friday ) . She left New York on April 15 th . The New York Herald says that the American Minister at Nicaragua is to demand the restoration of the steamers of the Transit Company , and an indemnity for the damage done by the destruction of property on the route . If these demands are not acceded to * San Juan is to be bombarded . A revolution had broken but at Tampico . :
West Indies. We Have News From Kingston,...
WEST INDIES . We have news from Kingston , Jamaica , to the 23 rd lilt . The British gunboat Styx , had returned to that port on the 19 th , from a fruitless search for the Jaseur . The outbreak of labourers in Westmoreland was supposed to be the commencement , of a fierce war of colour and race on the island . . Advices from Havannah to the 9 th inst . Nothing of political interest has transpired on the island ; great losses had been sustained by the late fires on some sugar estates .
Suspicions.—-It Has Transpired That Abou...
Suspicions . — -It has transpired that about two or three months back , one of the principal chart-sellers in London received an order simultaneously from the ^ French and Russian Governmepts , to the extent of 5002 . each , for a number of copies of each of the Charts and surveys ofthe English coast and fortified places , as well as those of our stations in the Mediterraneanj & e . Struck by the magnitude of the order , he considered himself bound to mention it to
the Admiralty , but no objection was made to its being executed . About three weeks back a similar order , to the amount of 300 Z ., came from the Spanish Government ; and to-day fresh orders of 5001 , each have arrived from France and Russia . In this case the charts of the ports and coasts of our Indian possessions are included . The Admiralty , of course , are not to be blamed for sanctioning the sale , because if a refusal were given the required copies could easily be obtained by indirect means . — Times .
The French in Cochin-China . —There has evidently been a subtle and pre-conceived policy at ¦ work , which has led to the transference of the French fleet and the enlisting of Spanish mercenaries to carry on a war of aggression and acquisition of territory , with the ultimate qbject of conquering Cochin-China—* a country with which other foreign powers had no connexion nor trade , and against the people of which there was an old standing grievance to redress . But they do not seem to have demanded redress , and territorial acquisition appears clearly the object . We cannot but regard the formation of a naval and military depot at Tonron by a powerful
European State , as fraught with expense and annoyance to the permanent interests of Great Britain , both as respects the trade of the China Sea and the Straits settlements . Bo long i \ b the French expedition was intended to throw open Cochin-China to trade , or to insure an adequato retribution for the friglltful cruelties committed on the Woman Catholic missionaries , it had our hearty sympathy . But the extension of Frcnclx dominion in Cochin-China , or even the foundation of a powerful French settlemont , involves questions of the most grave importance . It is no light thing for England to loso that isolation , which has been so long one of the most
valuably'attributes of the Eastern empire . Hitherto the British empire in Asia has had no enemy within 10 , 000 miles capablo even of n menace . —China Telegraph . Onunou Matters in KNiowTS » niDaE . r—On Tuesday the parishlonera of Knightabrldgo had their Annual vestry for thp election of churchwardens , And there was the ordinary exciting sceno , arising from the religious differences which continue to agitato the happy flock of the lion , and Roy . Mr , IdddenV The incumbent Was in the chair , and Colonel Vorokor and Mr . Westorton assailed life practices in eirong language , Mr . Wester ton was Again no . nlnatod aa a church warden , ' but ho declined to serve .
